The fight against the importation of
foreign contract labor has assumed a new
and unexpected phase One of the New
York churches not iinding anything good
enough for it on American soil sent over
to England for clergyman to fill its pul
pit The importation had a regular con
tract which provided for him a good snug
salary and this has been made the basis
cf a suit against the church trustees for
violating the laws against foreign labor
It will be interesting to watch the result
of this case in the courts If the law
could be made to apply to the barn
stormers who are brought over here every
season and advertised as actresses it
would be a protection to the people for
which they would be truly thankful

CHICAGOS EH TERPRISS
The enterprising people of Chicago
lose no opportunity to advertise their
city They are a busy wideawake city
full of life and energy They have built
up a city that is the admiration and as
tonishment of the world and they Bpent
little time in doing it They have a
board of trade that tells the farmers of
the country what to ask for their pro
ducts and they have boodle aldermen and
anarchists It might reasonably be ex
pected that the Lake City would be satis
fled and contented but she is not She
wants to be made the center of the re
public of the United States and she wants
all the national conventions held within
her corporate limits for the accommoda
tion of which she proposes erecting a
building capable of holding all the ambi
tious orators of the country who can
afford to attend a national convention In
going to this vast expense she has sent
representatives to Washington to invite
President Cleveland to participate in the
laying of the corner stone He is ex
pected to take the trowel in his good
right hand stir the mortar until the
right consistency is obtained and
then scoop up a good quantity of it to
make greeting place for the corner stone
All thg time he will be expected to look
pleasrj and delighted He must make a
speec of course partly historical and
partlypathetic Then Chicago will enjoy
another boom which will go sounding
down through all time To build and
advertise a city is a laudable ambition in
sny people but there is danger of going
just a little too far President Cleveland
is making a western tour at his own ex
pense for his own pleasure and recre
ation and he should be allowed to select
his Oivn methods of entertainment There
is very little pleasure in laying corner
stones or in hippodroming around to ad
vertise a city and it will not be surpris
ing if the President refuses to comply
with the wishes of the enthusiastic Chi
Wl
or
A
At ihk very outset of his western tour
President Cleveland will be met with a
delegation of Chicago carpenters who will
endeavor to dissuade him from assisting
in laying the coiner stone of the proposed
convention hall because there are some
scab carpenters employed in its con
struction This will be embarrassing and
unfortunrte It Is to be regretted that
the Chicago people do not conceal their
soiled linen if they have any from public
view Appealing to the President and
endeavoring to make him a party to their
carrel is a piece of childish foolishness
ich should not be indulged in by grown
pcople As the chief executive of the
> le country President Cleveland should
nq Hie expected to act as umpire in every
lal trouble that occurs The city of
Cbngo will be represented by here li
ciSS doubtless and small factions of her
citVens should not create dioturbance by
opposing the popular will
TEE XEIV YORK TLA TFOEH
New York has opened the presidential
campaign it may be said by the late
Saratoga convention
Other states will
their orms also but New Wk
avc P
President m the event of Mr Clevelands
is looked upon as being second in im
portance only o the National Democratic
Convention itielf The platform adopted
is brief bold and explicit there is a
gratifying absence of claptrap platitudes
and meaningless amplification so common
in votecatching appeals to the country
A demand is made for a reduction of
governmenta revenues to a sumsullicient
to carry on the government economically
and nothing more The en
dorsement of President Cleve
land is merely an endorsement
of the Demoratic party and could not
well be avoided There are no appeals
to classes no slobbering over the dearly
beloved laboring msn no comprom
ises or concessions but simply a reitera
tion of the Democratic faith as taught
and practiced since the foundation of the
government It required a courage which
is admirable in view of the condition of
the politics of the Empire state to ig
nore wholly the isms and ideas being ad
vocated by so many conllictitig subdivis
ions of what claims to be the labor party
The platform recognizes neither class nor
special interest but considers the general
welfare of all assuming that every citizen
has a common right and a common inter
est and that each is iully competent to
secure for himself the rights and priv
ileges guaranteed him under the laws of
the country It is a straightforward
manly platfarm which will appeal to all
minds not warped by selfishness or blunted
by greed for place aud prominence and
will be acceptable to those vho have not
surrendered independence and individ
uality and become puerile supplicans for
governmental support There will be
oojection3 urged against the platform of
course Tae cranks who havc drawn
around them a few disciples of impossible
theories will be displeased rival political
parties will be displeased but the ptople
of the country and of New York who
fully appreciate the dignity of citizenship
will have no faults to find

not The Chicago exposition building
a magnificent brick structure of colossal
dimensions was built and completed
in ninetysix days and if Fort
